A.Except as provided in Subsection C, possession or storage of weapons by
students is prohibited on any property owned or controlled by the University,
including University certified housing units.

B.Prohibited weapons include but are not limited to any: 1) firearm,
firearm ammunition, BB gun, pellet gun, paintball gun, tear gas gun, stun gun,
taser, or other dangerous or deadly device of similar type; 2) knife with a
blade of at least 3 inches in length (except an ordinary eating utensil),

nunchaku, or other dangerous or deadly weapon of similar type; 4) bomb,
bombshell, grenade, firework, bottle or other container containing an explosive,
toxic, or noxious substance (other than an object containing a nonlethal noxious
liquid, gas, or substance designed solely for personal defense possessed by a
person 18 years of age or older); and 5) souvenir weapon or other weapon that
has been rendered permanently inoperative.

C.Possession of a weapon on nonresidential University property may be
permitted when it is used as a prop or accessory in situations such as 1) a
University class; 2) a University-sponsored or sanctioned artistic performance;
or 3) a University-sanctioned activity of a Registered Student Organization.
Such weapons may not, however, be stored on University property, except in a
facility approved for that purpose by the University.

E.In determining appropriate sanctions for violations of the student
discipline rules contained in this Code (Article 1, Part 3), the use or
threatened use of any object (whether or not defined as a weapon in this
section) while committing the violation may be considered an aggravating factor.
